A+note+from...

**Hello and welcome to my classroom website! My name is Natasha Findlay and I am very excited to be teaching 4th grade at Woodland Park Elementary. I will be teaching Tuesday to Friday each week. **


 *  I started my professional teaching career not to long ago and have had the opportunity to teach English in China as well as grade 5,6,7 French, and a grade 7 classroom. As many of you may know from last year, I also taught grade four here at Woodland Park. **


 *  I completed my PDP teaching certificate and decided that I enjoyed learning about available and new resources, how to be a better teacher and ways to connect students to their learning, that I decided to go back to University. I am more than halfway completed my Graduate Diploma through SFU. This course focuses on learning and teaching with technology. As a result, I have built this web site with the goal in mind of creating a collaborative space where students can be motivated and engaged in their learning within our classroom this year. I hope you enjoy using this website and will check back often. I also hope you share with me what you are learning and finding interesting on our class website so that I can remember to keep it the following year. **
 *  I would love your feedback and comments regarding our classroom website which can be written on the Discussion page at the top of this screen. **

**Ms. Findlay **
 * I absolutely love being a teacher. It is truly an honor to inspire and encourage children on a daily basis. I don't know of another profession that is more rewarding or satisfying. **
 *  I look forward to a successful year with div 9. **
 *  Take care! **
